Hot Toys DX Bespin Luke Skywalker

[pixletwin]

Your point was to the fabric, not the pockets.
The pockets could do with being a smidge longer [and thus a bit taller] but that's a minor nit.

I am pretty sure he meant the fabric that makes up the pockets.

Still, looks great to me. It's obviously not 1:1 and you will never get that on a 1:6 figure - mass produced. Again, looks great to me though.

Wrong shape eyes, different nose and his jaw line is too wide... I have a lot of Hot Toys and it's a not a total horror show, but honestly... it's not the best likeness they have done...it's just okay... I draw, and paint portraits and I just don't see the likeness. it's like Luke lite...IMO

The figure is delayed because they're fixing all the problems people have with it.

Ahh I see. I thought he meant of the whole thing.

Good to hear... if that's the case.. he'll be on my shelf.....

I agree. HT wants their first foray into Star Wars to be everything people want it to be.

Yeah and the rest of the clothes too. It wasn't a complaint, I just think that it could be improved and I'm pretty sure there must be some fabric that is thiner. That's all.

That's what I think too, but I think Hot Toys has created the illusion for some people that this is how Mark Hamill looks.

Yes... we don't need to see his likeness.. No, we don't need to see his likeness...LOL!

Their jedi mind tricks don't work on me!!

Seriously.. I'm glad to hear this, when I saw the pics of the figure I was going to have to pass... the battle damaged Luke is a much better portrait... and as I said I'm usually Pretty happy with Hot Toys... even the Indy DX looks much better in hand, than in the pics... but that Luke looks wayyyyy... off to me.

HT Japan says August...

 

[Cap'n Cook]

Thanks.

Hope to pick it up from HK direct.

arrgh. if ever there was a picture that proves we need his head and neck as two separate pieces ...

Please no. Neck and sculpt together is way better. It's just not needed on this figure.

What? Is the head and neck sculpted in one piece? So it's only possible to turn the head sideways?

 

[marker2037]

No you can turn it how ever way you want it just turns as one whole piece.

 

[Wulf]

No you can turn it how ever way you want it just turns as one whole piece.

How? I don't get it? If it turns at all directions, why would someone want it to be separated?

It's usually used to make a more natural face angle in extreme poses

Not much of a big deal, but it helps to make these figures look less awkward in certain poses.
